Pressing the flesh!

Life at Powershop, News

As Powershop moves beyond our initial awareness building phase to growing customer numbers we are keen to explore more direct ways of communicating with potential customers.  We have been doing a lot of this online, and we are now keen to explore face-to-face communications with these potential customers and of course to get feedback from our early adopters. However, there will be no ‘door knockers’ or ‘hard sell’ from us - we very much believe that customers should choose Powershop because they like what we are doing and value our service.   What we want to do is find forums to talk to people about our philosophies and our product, and answer questions face-to-face.

Tim Fraser (aka Chief sales weasel) in full flight!

We are excited by the prospect of ‘putting ourselves out there’.  This weekend we have a stand at the Wellington House and Home show.  The stand will be led by Business Development Manager, Tim Fraser and manned by Powershop crew from both our Wellington office and our Masterton call centre.  Even yours truly will be there for a good chunk of the weekend.

So if you’re a Wellingtonian or are in Wellington for the weekend pop in and say hi.  We also have a couple of promotions running during the show for new customers.

Event Details:
Wellington House & Home Show
TSB Arena, Jervois Quay
5 - 7 June 2009 (Fri: 10am - 8pm, Sat, Sun: 10am - 6pm)

    Who looks after the line maintenance from the power pole to the house?

    Who does the pole fuse?

    @Bill:

    Line maintenance is looked after by your local lines company.

    We have certified contractors that look after the pole fuses and other connection related services for us.

    We also operate a 24/7 faults service that our customers can call in the event of a fault.
